SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 5, 1996, the Department published in the Federal
Register (61 FR 46783) its third notice of intent to terminate the
suspended countervailing duty investigation on certain carbon steel
wire rod from Argentina (47 FR 42393, September 27, 1982). The second
notice of intent to terminate was published in August 1990, at which
time the Department received an objection to termination from the
petitioners and one interested party. In addition, we received a
request for an administrative review and conducted an administrative
review (Final Results of Administrative Review, 56 FR 40309, August 14,
1991).
The Department will terminate a suspended investigation if the
Secretary concludes that the agreement is no longer of interest to
interested parties. (19 CFR 355.25(d)(4)) On September 26 and 30, 1996,
two petitioners, Atlantic Steel Industries, Inc. and North Star Steel
Texas, Inc., objected to the Department's third notice of intent to
terminate this suspended investigation. Therefore, we no longer intend
to terminate the suspended investigation. We did not, however, receive
a request for an administrative review at that time.
This notice is published in accordance with Sec. 355.25(d)(4) of
the Commerce Department's regulations. 19 CFR 355.25(d)(4).
Dated: November 26, 1996.
Joseph A. Spetrini,
Deputy Assistant Secretary, Enforcement Group III.
